Aluminum · Glass · Adams Rite Hardware
Sagging, dragging, won't-latch storefront doors put back in line — hardware, pivots and alignment handled in one visit.
Aluminum storefront doors are their own trade. The narrow stile leaves no room for ordinary locksets, so they run specialized hardware — Adams Rite–pattern deadlatches, hook bolts, paddles, pivots and continuous hinges. General handymen improvise on these doors and make them worse; we carry the correct parts and set the geometry the way the door was engineered to hang.
What We Repair on Storefront Doors
- Deadlatches & hook bolts — the narrow-stile locks that fail from decades of daily cycling
- Pivots — worn top and bottom pivots that let the door drop and drag the threshold
- Bottom rails — loose or dropped rails re-secured so the lock lines up again
- Thresholds — worn and lifted thresholds that catch the door replaced or reset
- Continuous hinges — full-height hinges fitted when pivots have chewed the frame
- Door alignment — the geometry work that makes every other repair hold
The Real Cause Is Usually Alignment
Nine out of ten "broken locks" are doors that dropped
When pivots wear, the door settles a few millimeters — enough that the latch no longer meets the strike. Staff start slamming and yanking, which finishes off the latch, and now there are two problems. Replacing the lock without lifting the door back into place fixes nothing; we do both, in that order.
Door dragging or refusing to latch? Call (702) 660-7877
Storefront doors also depend on their closers — a mis-adjusted closer slams the door out of alignment all day. We service both together; see commercial door closers. If your storefront needs new locks rather than repair, that's commercial lock installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why won't my storefront door latch?
Usually door sag: worn pivots or a dropped bottom rail throw the deadlatch out of line with the strike. We realign the door and rebuild the pivots rather than forcing the lock.
Can you replace just the lock in an aluminum door?
Yes — deadlatches, hook bolts and paddles are modular parts. We swap the failed component; the door and glass stay untouched.
My door slams in the wind — can you fix that?
That's the closer, not the lock. We adjust and replace surface and concealed closers on storefront doors as part of the same visit.
